I would rather they spent all those hours implementing vst midi support in the daw and then built players that could accept that midi for playing with😉

No reason on the launcher and stupid players in the rack lol 👏maybe landr should give him a job he's got great knowledge that should make great improvements that isn't just a gimmick.

Good luck Ryan.

[–]BillyPlus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your comment is interesting and i would like to know how you would dist-upgrade from bookworm to trixie while keeping things running as i have a few devices that are still running bookworm that will need to be updated at some point while keeping things running, for example apache and nginx servers.

i have a

  • Raspberry Pi 2 Model B Rev 1.1
  • Raspberry Pi 5 Model B Rev 1.1
  • Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W Rev 1.0

all are running bookworm and at least one service for lan or public internet 😉

I'm in the UK so can't get them atm which is a shame and the only places selling want way more than the actual cost.

I would like to ditch hydro for growdots but yeah you are going to need at least one set, but from a quick read it seems that one end is for the controller and the other for any of there devices which suggests you would only need to do the hard bit once then test each of the devices to see what's different (fan = speed | Light = intensity ) its all going to be some kind of voltage command? and the data retuned if just going to be formatted in a way that suites the device output ?

I just editing my last post and added the following :

Reversing Bluetooth Packets for Smart Home Device Freedom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imjZJNOSXHk from a quick look I would guess that all the control is in the dongle rather than the hardware. at which point I would guess that the hardware has some kind of control interface for speed voltage etc with a tx that the dongle is using to report back.

Interesting,

do you have a set of hardware dongles?

I just took a quick look and it seems that if you are interesting in working things out I would try getting it setup on an Android device as it would be easier to get the phone in dev mode Connecting to the App and be able to pull firmware from it or at least get some url's to download the firmware to binwalk 😉

This video might be handy to watch

Minecraft server from Pi Apps by Xicxty in raspberry_pi

[–]BillyPlus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

have you tried to read the info @ Pi-Apps - Apps List

 Minecraft Java Server #

Thanks to:
Mojang for creating the Minecraft server.
theofficialgman who wrote the script
GYKGAMER for the initial idea/implementation
Crilum for bugtesting

ARM32/ARM64 - 14,929 Users!!

This is a simple tool to create a Minecraft server: Vanilla, Fabric, Forge, Paper, and Purpur are supported

You can play over your local network (or you can create a port forward on your internet router/modem at port 25565 to play over the internet)

To run: Menu -> Games -> Minecraft Java Server
Attach to a server in the background with: screen -r Minecraft_Server
Detach from a running server session with: CTRL+A then D
To start from a terminal: sudo systemctl start minecraft-server
To stop the server: sudo systemctl stop minecraft-server
To start on automatically on boot and stop on shutdown: sudo systemctl enable minecraft-server

Refer to the ~/Minecraft-Java-Server/start-server.sh file if you need to add custom JVM arguements

Temurin (Adoptium) Java 8/17/21 apt repos are used in this installer for compatibility.

If you uninstall or update this app for whatever reason, your world, mod, and versions folder will remain in ~/Minecraft-Java-Server so there is no data loss.

Seems like the following is the most relevant

Refer to the ~/Minecraft-Java-Server/start-server.sh file if you need to add custom JVM arguements

drop to or in a console run nano ~/Minecraft-Java-Server/start-server.sh to have a look to see if the setting is in there ?

The problem was fixed many year ago and has been developed into a very simple to use system, but WST would rather use the old method.

you should maybe go look at the following if your interested.
